I don't know if y'all have been following the state of the board thread, but there's been some movement and people are trying out the Scary Mommy forums. It's also available on Tapatalk. It doesn't sound like people are moving for good but accounts have been made elsewhere.

I'll c/p my summary thread from July '15 about the forum. If you haven't been keeping up, don't really bother with the state of the forum thread. It's way too much.
I got the positive about four days before father's day last June. My older girls found out immediately because it was a .. is there really a line there type of test. I tested again the next day with a cheap test and nothing darker. I was pretty bummed. Somehow I just had this feeling though, sooo, on Father's day morning I stopped at a 24 hour CVS and picked up a digital test. It was positive, so I got a card for father's day to tell him when we were out for breakfast 🙂 He was thrilled!
As to leaving, I hope we don't. I followed the multiples forum here from the bump.
Oh, and HI! I asked for more hours at work. Tiny is growing super fast.. like 6-9 month clothes already ... he's 15 weeks old. Crazy!
SIL came over and hung out today. It was nice to hang out with another adult. And C took a killer nap this afternoon...especially needed after his hot mess yesterday and early wake up today.
I also think my period is coming. I had mild spotting for a day or two after my 6 week appointment a month ago after birth control was inserted. Haven't had a legit period yet. Been cramping for a day or two. Ick.
1. I think my period started today. I am still bleeding a little now and then, but this was more than that. I didn't get it back with DS1 until I started dropping feedings at 11 months, so screw you, universe if this is the real deal today. 2. I hope we all keep posting here and the boards don't implode because I can't handle moving over somewhere else. I also couldn't handle the pace at which that thread was moving, but then again, I don't participate in the Parenthood board because I find that too fast moving as well! 3. DS1 bit a kid at daycare today. This hasn't happened since before I had DS2, so I am not sure what's up. I am not a fan of his new room and want to move him to a standalone preschool, but the idea of getting two kids to two different daycares would mean leaving the house at 6:15 instead of 6:30.
I had my BFP on 7/12/16, or 5 days after we transferred 2 embryos.
Having a history of 4 losses, I simply texted my husband a picture of the pee stick. It wasn't faint at all- I assumed both had taken. (This would have been the equivalent of 9dpo)
My husband called and was annoyed I had tested before the beta. He doesn't trust pee sticks apparently, and said to "not get too excited before we see what the doctor said."
We didn't talk about it again really, for 4 days.
Then my betas didn't double, and I explained to H why that likely meant another m/c.
But then they did.
And then there was a (single) heartbeat. We still didn't talk about it.
Our anniversary happened when I was about 9 weeks. In the card, my H wrote "I can't help but be excited about what might be happening"
The cell free DNA testing- when we found out it was a girl- pretty much changed everything. We were all in after that.
glb30 That is an awesome story...I'm a little teary! With DS1, I didn't go in to have my betas drawn because it was a Friday and I didn't want to wake up early and go in before school. I was totally expecting it bad news again and didn't want to deal with it. I love how sometimes the best things happen when we least expect them!
Thankful so many March ladies got their babies after lots of struggle. Strong mamas!
Almost done with my first week back at work. A co-worker even brought me a coffee!
I got a bfp on June 28. It was our first month trying and my parents were in town for DD's 2nd birthday, so we only DTD twice. Very surprised! We had an early loss before so we were hesitantly excited.
I put the pee stick in a daddy card. DH doesn't really get excited until our kids come out.

This story have me the most intense feels.
I'm not crying I just have pepper in both my eyes.
I tested way early on 7/21 l and saw the squintiest of squirters. Told my right away and then proceeded to freak out because dd1 JUST started sleeping and I JUST started feeling like a normal person again.
With dd1 it took about 10 months to get pregnant. I took about 700 tests and waited until I was sure they were positive to tell mh. I bought a onesie and gave it to him after work. He didn't quite get it and I had to explain.
